Next up we are taking at a look at a series of ten fantastic works we have caught from prolific graffiti writer Zaki, comprising one icon work from east London and one icon along with a series of eight letter works at the Penge Rooftop Gallery. This artist’s works are always so clean, and whilst you can instantly recognize work from Zaki, especially his icons, there is no specific style on his approach to letters, other than they are all perfectly executed every single time. It’s absolutely incredible how this artist can relentlessly work in such a minimalist format and come up with so many different approaches to his letter works. The most noticeable change to his work this last year has been a cessation of painting his icon characters and a shift to painting more textured filled letter pieces as his approach of choice.
The works below at the Penge Rooftop Gallery in Penge were placed up with support from ourselves London Calling Blog for our community mural project SprayExhibition20. We of course wish to say a massive thank you to both Zaki for supporting the community initiatives we involve ourselves with and for leaving such a captivating pair of artworks in our corner of the world in the process.
